Abstract: The Blackwell-MacQueen description of sampling from a Dirichlet
random distribution on an abstract space is reviewed, and extended to
a general family of random discrete distributions. Results are obtained
by application of Kingman's theory of partition structures.
1 Introduction
Blackwell and MacQueen [10] described the construction of a Dirichlet prior
distribution by a generalization of P'olya's urn scheme. While the notion
of a random discrete probability measure governed by a Dirichlet... (Update)
